Question

Scarlett is playing a video game she spends 900 minerals to create 18 workers each worker costs the same number of minerals write an equation to describe the relationship between m the amount of minerals and w the number of workers

Answer 1

M=50w

Let's find the constant of proportionality.

In the proportional relationship between mmm, the amount of minerals, and www, the number of workers, one constant of proportionality is the mineral cost per worker. It is the number we multiply by the number of workers to get the number of minerals

Answer 2

W=50M

Explanation:

Since there are 18 workers per 900 minerals, divide out to simplify.

STARTING EQUATION: 900m=18w

SIMPLIFY: divide both sides by 18.

SIMPLIFIED: 50m=1w

There is your answer!
